SINGAPORE — A 32-year-old man who tried to rape a former flatmate failed in his appeal for a retrial, and instead had his jail term increased by just over a year for the «troubling» way he had argued his appeal.Gao Xiong, who was a PhD student at the time of his offences, was originally sentenced on Dec 1, 2025, by the High Court to six years, six months and six weeks' jail, as well as three strokes of the cane.He was represented by a lawyer when he pleaded guilty to one count of attempted rape and three counts of criminal trespass.At his appeal hearing on May 12, the Chinese national, who did not have a lawyer, claimed that he was «confused» when he pleaded guilty and that he was not given the opportunity to address the court.Gao also blamed the victim for causing him to perpetuate the crime. He even tried to blame her flatmate, who had dragged him away from the woman, claiming that the intervention prevented him from apologising to the victim.On July 3, the Court of Appeal increased Gao's jail term to seven years, seven months and six weeks.

The personal information and property addresses of an estimated 70,000 people have been affected by a data security incident at the Singapore Land Authority (SLA), following unauthorised access to an IBM-managed cloud environment.In a statement on Friday (July 3) afternoon, SLA said the unauthorised access involved a data set created for the purpose of vendor development and testing.The data set, which was created in 1998 and updated periodically over the years, was intended to only contain mock and anonymised testing data based on property ownership and lodgement records.However, it has since been found to contain the names, NRIC numbers, and property addresses of an estimated 70,000 people. According to SLA, this information should have been anonymised, but was not, with investigations underway to determine how this occurred. IBM has since revoked access associated with the affected development and testing environment to prevent any other unauthorised access.
